What an inspiring picture that is. And, he really looks like he was into it, too!

I keep telling our boy .... men are good at this. It is an angle thing. Men love angles. It is a number game. Men are good at numbers. Real men LOVE numbers. It is a man thing - - men are GREAT quilters.
Hi Omak,

I definitely think you're on to something there! My grandson is very smart and creative, and was really into helping this Grandma. Lucky me! :)
Well, if you think about it ... quilts are constructive ... men LOVE constructive ... I know why daughter hates my "sexist" remarks, but doggone it! It gives the boy something to do, although ... I am beginning to see that he is getting really interested in the cattle ... our new calf needed a selenium shot, and boy told me he had never done it before, (which is how he tells us that he would like to try something, I guess) so Omakdaddy took him out this evening and let him give the shot.
Last question of the evening: So! When is the next cow going to calve?
I thought it was going to be July ... but, I am thinking ... that cow is probably a sneaker -- I am sure your hubby is saying: What do you mean it might be any day or in July??? What was she watching when the cow and bull got together ...????
It's a long story ... and, he should just go listen to some shamrock <g> or his brain might explode believing ANYONE could pull such a stupid stunt ... quilting and ranching .. what a combination, eh?
